October 31st 2025: we were ghosthunting on devils knight, the location was the Old Clayton House. Reports stated the EMF readers were going haywire and voices could be heard in the upstairs bedroom. If I was ever going to get a lead on the doll house killer, tonight would be the night.......

Unfortunately for us it was closed on Labor Day so we just walked to grounds in the yard and admired the garden out front. The architecture the stones and enjoyed our visit. Would have loved to been able to go inside but still appreciated the experience. We will return again when in the area for an internal visit.
